First Hotel Grims Grenka

Trendy design hostelry in the city centre

The 65 oversized rooms at this Oslo design hotel – decorated with minimalist artwork themed after summer or winter – have an almost oriental feel, conjuring more closely a nightclub than hostelry. But things are supremely comfortable and convenient at Grims Grenka, where restaurants, bars and shopping are mere steps from the lobby door. The sunny rooftop terrace attracts the city’s beautiful people for cocktails on fair days. And Brooms & Hatchets, onsite, is one of Oslo’s most sceney bars.
